Yeah afraid of that. Oh well $10 for a new one isn't gonna break me.
Odd, I talked with a welder and he swore by simple green. Best cleaner for heli arc welding per him.
Thanks

You could just buy the factory 1 3/4" long chrome clip that covers the seam area it may cover up what you need to.

Yes, I posed the same question to Phoenix and they suggested the cover. It's cheap but a new lock isn't very expensive and I can change it out easily.

I just put one of the new windows into the mini, I did the back one

new glass and new seal


this time around, I put the seal onto the glass and then put it into the car,

getting the seal onto the glass was a pain but putting the seal into the car was simple, I used no lube whats so ever this time around

im getting ready to put the rear side windows in

[tsumini]

Hmmm... trying to visualize... did you have to work the seal onto the body from the inside?
Someone daid the back was easier than front.

I worked the seal into the body from the outside, I have some plastic trim panel tools

im going to try it on the front next week


Monday I plan to put the door guts and glass back into the car
so maybe by Tuesday i'll be able to work the front window
